Rotary granulators

Note Compactor parameters roll pressure = 62-65 bar, roll speed = 8rpm, horizontal screw feed = 52 rpm, de-aeration = —0.2 bar, sized by double rotary granulators 4 mm and 1.2 mm screens.

Rotary granulator subclasses primarily are distinguished by their structural architecture. They have either open top architecture, such as a vertical centrifugal spheronizer, or closed top architecture, such as a closed top fluid bed dryer. 

In an attempt to further simplify DAP plants and reduce the recycle ratio, TVA, CROS S.A., and ERT - Espindesa have tried to use pipe reactors (also called T reactors or pipe-cross reactors) directly releasing slurry in the rotary granulator, instead of applying a preneutralization tank. CROS and ERT -Espindesa report successful operation, but experiences in several U.S. plants were disappointing because of high heat input in the granulator296.
